Mexico City /
After Mexican volleyball He was absent from the Paris 2024 Olympic Games and in all its modalities, the Mexican Volleyball Federation has already begun to take measures so that discipline returns to the next fair in Los Angeles 2028. The first of them was to hire the Brazilian coach Francisco Antonio Rodrígues Castro for the women’s beach sport.
“We presented a project to the FIVB through the Empowerment Commission, where we requested support to be able to project the teams to competitive levels in the world. It means having experienced technical teams with international recognition. so that they contribute new work methods and philosophies specific to each one of them so that Mexican volleyball has an increase in its level. This has helped them listen to Mexico a lot in its aspirations, needs and future plans. so that the country can be a protagonist in international events,” said Jesús Perales Navarro, president of the federation.
Among the most notable achievements of Reis Castro They are qualified for four consecutive Olympic Games (Beijing 2008, London 2012, Rio 2016 and Tokyo 2020) directing Juliana/Larissa on two occasions (with whom he won gold at the Rome 2011 World Championship)Larissa/Talita and Ana Patricia/Rebecca.
“We are really privileged because, as a federation, we could hardly have coaches of this level due to the high costs of their payroll due to the track record they have. We hope it will be used in the coming years to develop the project and intention of the FIVB that Mexico continues to have international participation at all times,” added the federation.
Mexico could not qualify any couple in the beach modality for Paris 2024 and despite the fact that there was a strong investment from Conade for a project, there were also different international events in our country with the aim of having a viable path towards the last Olympic event.
